In this article, a two-dimensional photonic crystal-based XOR gate is designed and simulated. For this purpose, an initial two-dimensional photonic crystal structure is chosen and waveguides are created for inputs and outputs. Then, defect rods are selected so that the obtained outputs are approximately consistent with the XOR gate truth table. After that, we will […]
In this paper, a 1*2 all-optical power splitter has been presented which is suitable for the third window of optical communications based on photonic crystal structures. This structure can provide a 50% transmission coefficient at a wavelength of 1550 nm in each splitter output branch. The device has been designed based on an input waveguide, […]
This study presents a photonic bandgap formation in a non-uniform 2D photonic crystal structure with low index rods relative to the air background. In order to find an absolute photonic band gap formation, photonic lattices of two non-uniform square and triangular configurations with different rod radiuses and ring-shaped rods are studied. Based on PWE simulations, […]
